Dadical, Partly it was looks and partly it was that I had a chance to play the AJ more. Not sure why, but I think the Guitar Center near me had AJs and not J-45s for me to play.

The last two times I had time to spend in GC looking at acoustics, I played everything in there I thought I might like, and the AJ was the best playing and sounding guitar in there...even the one with the badly repaired headstock.

Sorry I can't really give you my thoughts on how they compare as I didn't really compare them that well.

What I liked best about the AJ was the full, round bass and kind of resinous top end, and the neck is full and the most comfortable I could find. I also just love the looks.
